The Truth, the facts are correct. This story was written in November 2008, just a couple of weeks after Stevens was convicted of seven felony counts: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/28/washington/28stevens.html

He wasn’t “proven innocent” later. There were charges of prosecutorial misconduct so the conviction was vacated in April 2009. Those are very different things.

akryan, thank you for shedding some light on these ignorant liberals. They’re too busy wallowing around in their ignorance to get a clue.

Oh and Stevens was proven innocent, the writer should get her facts straight.

Okay, it is very true that we are federal welfare whores but let us develop ANWR. Imagine if the people in Iowa were suddenly told that they couldn’t farm on the most arable land in the state because the federal gov’t decided it should be a wildlife preserve. It’s the same thing for us. People hear the words Wildlife Reserve and they picture caribou prancing through the woods. ANWR is like a moonscape over most of it. The initial pipeline didn’t destroy the natural beauty of the state and neither will this. The drill area itself would be about as big as an airport in the middle of an area bigger than some states. And BTW, until you stop driving and using any petroleum product please spare me the global warming lectures.

‘We’ may be destroying their state, but not as fast as they want. I believe it’s Alaskans who want to drill in ANWR so badly. So…THEY are choosing money from oil companies over maintaining their beautiful state and we are paying them extra for the priviledge of giving them what they want. Doesn’t seem fair to me.
